Chapter 515 Guo Pu
Chapter 515 Guo Pu
Tears of blood flowed down the cheeks of the faceless female Buddha... and made a soft "tick-tick-tick" sound when they fell on the bluestone slabs.
I don’t know who gasped first!
The archaeological team, which had been relatively calm, suddenly became disorganized.
Everyone subconsciously moved closer to Qin An!
"Brother Qin An... why is this Buddha statue bleeding? Could it be that it can no longer suppress the ghost that King Chu Xing imprisoned in the stone cave?" Meng Yu's voice trembled slightly.
She thought this Buddha statue was used to ward off ghosts!
Qin An looked up at the face of the female Buddha statue and said, "It is the ghost captured by King Chu Xing to guard the tomb... To be more precise! This is the golden body that King Chu Xing sculpted for that ghost."
Hear this.
Netizens in the live broadcast room were stunned!
"No... Lao An is saying this faceless female Buddha statue is a ghost's golden body? How could a ghost be shaped like a Buddha statue? This is extremely disrespectful."
[What's wrong with the above guy? First of all, ghosts and Buddhas are fictional creatures... they don't exist! Secondly, Buddhas are just powerful ghosts with a certain organization.]
【It really is】
"What the hell are you guys discussing...are you crazy? How could there be ghosts in this world? King Chu Xing even made a golden statue for a ghost? If ghosts really existed, how could you have been roaming around in the tomb for so long? You'd be dead long ago!"
"Then why did this faceless female Buddha shed tears of blood? And why did it happen exactly when the archaeological team entered?"
[I don’t know! But I just have to believe in science]
...........
Netizens in the live broadcast room were talking about it.
The archaeological team surrounding the temple is not much better off!
"Just stand here and don't go anywhere! Watch out behind you!"
After Qin An said this, he walked towards the faceless female Buddha... He wanted to see whether the two lines of blood and tears flowing down were real blood.
The faceless female Buddha is more than two meters tall.
Its golden body sits upright on a golden lotus throne!
Looking down with a look of pity.
Qin An is not afraid of these supernatural things.
He slammed his right foot into the ground.
He leaped up and flew onto the shoulder of the faceless female Buddha!
at the same time.
The archaeological team members standing in front of the Buddha statue couldn't help but worry for Qin An when they saw him stepping on the statue!
Qin An grabbed the faceless female Buddha's ear with his right hand.
He stretched out his left hand... wiped a handful of blood and tears on the face of the faceless female Buddha before retracting it.
Sniff--
Qin An put his left hand in front of his nose and sniffed.
I found that this blood and tears did not have the rusty smell of fresh blood... Instead, it looked like a vermilion color mixed with cinnabar and mountain spring water. From a distance, it really looked like blood and tears.
Case solved!
This isn't blood and tears at all.
It’s just a mechanism used by King Chu Xing to scare tomb robbers!
"Brother Qin An...how are you?"
Hu Jizhou saw that Qin An’s face was serious.
He thought the problem was more serious than he imagined!
Qin An jumped down from the faceless female Buddha's shoulder and said:
"It's okay... This is the vermilion liquid that King Chu Xing made by mixing cinnabar with water! It just looks a bit like blood and tears from a distance!"
Hearing this quite scientific explanation.
The hearts of the archaeological team members finally settled down!
Qin An also felt that he was worrying too much.
[Ghost Buddha in the Cave] This weird method of tomb-guarding only appeared during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties...and only the aristocratic families would use it secretly!
This King Xing of Chu lived during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
How could it be possible that [Cave Ghost Buddha] was guarding the tomb?
"Since this is just a misunderstanding... let's continue going inside! I always feel that this place is dark and creepy!" Hawkeye said with his neck shrank.
The archaeological team members felt the same way.
So there is no objection!
The group took a detour to the right of the faceless female Buddha... The environment here was finally a little more normal. Although it was still a bit eerie, at least there were no weird things like yellow paper, soul-calling banners, and bronze mirrors.
Yang Lele felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing.
So he took the initiative to find a topic, "Brother Qin An...why did you say there was a ghost in that cave before? And you also said that the faceless female Buddha was the golden body of a ghost? What is its origin?"
After pondering for a moment.
Qin An replied, "That strange stone cave and the faceless female Buddha behind it remind me of the ancient tomb burglary prevention method that only appeared during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties - the cave ghost Buddha!"
Cave ghost Buddha?
Everyone's faces were filled with confusion!
Qin An continued, "During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties... the imperial power gradually declined! The aristocratic families of the Five Surnames and Seven Famous Clan held the vast majority of the say in the court.
It can be said that it is unparalleled!
But the leaders of the aristocratic families of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans would all die in the end. The common people of that period were so hungry that they had to eat their own children. There were a large number of burial objects in the ancient tombs of the aristocratic families!
They would steal even at the risk of losing their heads.
Moreover, tomb-robbing technology has been gradually improved since Cao Mengde!
No matter how many traps the aristocratic families built in the ancient tomb, they could not withstand the hungry people pouring out...So they invited Guo Pu, a Feng Shui expert of that period.
It is Guo Pu who created "The Book of Burial"!
Guo Pu quickly came up with a solution - to build a cave ghost Buddha in the tomb! The so-called cave ghost Buddha is to create a completely sealed shrine.
Then find another woman, tie her up in the shrine and suffocate her to death!
Seven days later!
That is, when the woman's ghost returns to the shrine on the seventh day...then use talisman paper to lead the woman's ghost into the cave, and use the refraction of the mirror to prevent the ghost from ever leaving the cave and being able to reincarnate.
Thus achieving the purpose of guarding the tomb for the tomb owner!"
Qin An originally wanted to continue talking about the role of the faceless female Buddha.
But Hawkeye interrupted him:
"Brother Qin An...did the woman who was tied up and suffocated to death in the shrine have any requirements? For example, age and hair style?"
Qin An nodded and said, "She must be between 16 and 18 years old! Her hair should preferably be waist-length! If such a woman dies unjustly, she will feel the greatest resentment!"
"If her resentment isn't strong enough, do we still need to hang her by the neck with a rope?"
"You know this as well?"
Hawkeye raised his hand tremblingly and pointed behind him: "Because there is a female corpse hanging from the neck of the faceless female Buddha!"
